Allu Arjun to return in a fierce avatar in 'Pushpa 3' in 2028

Fans of Allu Arjun are in for a treat, as the stylish star is all set to return in his most iconic role yet. After the massive success of Pushpa: The Rise and Pushpa: The Rule, the actor will reprise his role as the intense and fierce Pushpa Raj in Pushpa 3, set for release in 2028. The film promises to take the character to even greater heights, with Allu Arjun’s portrayal of the rugged, rebellious red sandalwood smuggler pushing boundaries.

Currently, Allu Arjun is busy with his upcoming projects, first collaborating with the talented director Atlee for an exciting new venture. Following this, the actor will team up with director Trivikram Srinivas for yet another highly anticipated film. Given the complexity and scale of both these projects, it’s expected that it will take at least two years before either of them is completed and ready for release.

As a result, the shooting for Pushpa 3 will not begin until after the completion of these projects, with filming slated to begin in 2026. This means fans will have to wait a little longer before witnessing the next chapter in the Pushpa saga. The good news is that the time invested will ensure that the film will meet the sky-high expectations set by its predecessors.

Mythri Movie Makers, the producers of the Pushpa franchise, have confirmed that the story of Pushpa 3 will be bigger, bolder, and even more intense. With Allu Arjun’s fierce avatar, combined with the direction of Sukumar, the third installment is expected to be a game-changer in Indian cinema. As anticipation grows, fans are eagerly waiting to see how Pushpa Raj’s saga unfolds in the years to come.
